Vindication of the Rejected Heir Chapter 229
"As I said, what we should be more concerned about is getting back the money first," Declan said as he looked at every one of them in the room as they sat down and looked at him. "How do we get access to the money when we do not know who is behind it at first?" One member of the accounts department asked. "You are also forgetting that by seeking the location of our money, we can get access to the culprit," Declan mentioned. They nodded in agreement, and for the next hour, Declan spent time deliberating on what he thought was the perfect game plan for them. All the while, Micheal kept looking at him in admiration. Declan was a man fit to run an empire. It showed in the way he loved and treated his employees. It showed in his rational decision-making. It showed in how versatile he was, and his level of innovation. Samantha once told him that one of the things that attracted her to Declan was his big brains. The meeting soon came to an end with the game plan for the accountants.

He was still taking in the familiar scent when Samantha strolled out of the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel. He smiled when he saw her but still stood fixedly in place. "You did not tell me you were coming back home," he said quietly. "Do I need to take permission before coming back to my husband's house?" She asked. "I wanted to surprise you," she added immediately as she walked to where he was. "It's such a pleasant surprise," he said as he put his hands around her in a hug. He kissed her ear and went all the way to her forehead. When his lips met hers, he let out a groan while she moaned simultaneously. This was going to be the longest they had spent without touching each other in a long time. In a swift movement, he held her against the door of the closet, and slowly, while looking into her eyes, he slid the towel down her body, so that she was fully exposed to him. "What are you doing?" She asked him as he went down on her. "I'm making love to my beautiful wife," he sai

Samantha decided on a birthday party for Declan's thirtieth birthday. She had sought a reasonable way to celebrate him. He had a closet filled with clothes, racks of shoes, a plane, a yacht, landed properties, and whatnot.She finally decided to ask Micheal who had told her that Declan was not someone who expected much from people. He told her that putting a smile on his face alone was a gift to him.When she thought of what would put a smile on his face, she could only think of family and friends. Declan was someone who valued relationships so much that if she wanted to do something nice for him, she had to think of a way that would bring his acquaintances together. On the morning of his birthday, she had given him a great birthday sex, that had her grinding against him like he was a horse, his large muscular hands on her hips, directing her movements. He liked the way she arched her back with her hands on his chest. She would flip her head at intervals and tilt it to the side as

Hannah walked up to where Kennedy sat and she saw him adjust immediately. It made her smile that he thought she was important to talk to. When she came closer, he opened up a chair so she could have a seat. "I thought you were busy with someone," she said uninterestedly as she sipped her drink. "I don't know what you are saying because I came here alone," he said. "I saw you talking to her," she insisted as she used her wine glass to point at the lady that he had been having a conversation with earlier."Amina is an old friend from Nigeria and I was surprised to see her here," he explained. "What we were doing was simply catching up on old times," he added so he could make her feel safe. "What do you want to talk about?" She asked him pointedly. "I want us to work on what we have," he said."What we had died the moment you told me that you had a child for someone that it's safe to say that she is crazy," she replied immediately. "I'm not just looking out for myself; people like

Daniel had been very cranky the entire week. First, all the money that he stole from the company's account had magically returned to it, and it still surprised him that they found out about the offshore account. He also received news that Declan hosted a birthday party over the weekend. He had not been invited nor did he have any knowledge about it. He knew what he could do with the knowledge of such a gathering. He was angry because, after months of being CEO, he had still not successfully convinced the board why he should take over the house. The will stated that it was primarily Declan's inheritance, and there was nothing that he could do about it. Declan, on the other hand, had suddenly banned him from entering the house. The security around it was toughened up so that no matter how much he tried to meander his way in, he would not succeed. This morning, Declan called for a board meeting that he said was going to be used to pass some information. He wished he could stop De

"I will have to leave very early today," Micheal informed Declan ahead of time. He did not want to be faced with the challenge of having so much work that he could barely manage any spare time. "You have a date with your girlfriend, I guess," Declan said as he looked up at Micheal."Let's not say it's a date," Micheal began, blushing lightly. "It's just a little thing that I do with her every month," he explained. "What is that?" Declan asked, not feeling bad about prying. It was the same thing Micheal did as well. He could swear that Michael knew so many things about him that Samantha had yet to find out. He was very observant and he loved that about her. "We go to the prison for a visit before we head to the orphanage," Micheal said. "Shonda said she wants to own an NGO in Africa in the future, so this is a good start for us."Declan was highly impressed by this agenda. His father ran several orphanages and charitable homes before he died. It was conferred on him in the will. He

Samantha had never been pleased to hear the news before. Declan's agreement to still go ahead with having a child despite the Georgina drama was like music to her ears. She had not bothered to pester him about it anymore, as she did not want him to say he was right after all about Georgina. Instead, she had been more intentional about living her best life. She thought of the children back at the country home. They were enough to suffice for what she could not have. "Do you want to do an adoption or should we still search for a surrogate?" She asked him, deciding to lay all the cards on the table so they could deliberate together. She was not going to be selfish this time. Having a child was going to be a big step for them. It was not the financial aspect that bothered them. Declan's companies and businesses were worth an amount that could feed an entire city comfortably."We are both hoping to carry our child in our hands someday, so I guess surrogacy would not be a bad idea," he

Declan paced about in the bedroom endlessly and Samantha was beginning to get dizzy from following him with her eyes. "You are going to bore holes in this floor if you don't stop pacing so much," she said to him. "That boy is making me go crazy," Declan said as he rubbed his forehead in exhaustion. Samantha wondered if it was Daniel he was calling a boy, but she resolved that there was no better way to refer to someone so petty than a boy. "What did he do this time?" She asked him gently, not wanting to piss him off further."He fired the entire members of the accounting department before I could come to the office," Declan complained. Samantha was left to wonder if Daniel was going insane or not. She had never seen someone that acted so much on impulse in an instant. He was so quick to act that one would think that he was not thinking at all. "I thought he was no longer CEO.""I nullified what he did immediately after I got the notice.""Then what are you worried about?""Don't

It had been over two months since the doctor told them that their babies had high chances of survival as they showed massive improvements with their treatment. Samantha had stopped going to the office totally, and Declan had requested that an office space to be set up in the executive ward for him. Lucy was getting so much better and she was able to breastfeed the children as Samantha had required of her. It was as though they were living in the hospital with their children. Declan's heart swelled with joy with every inch that was added to their height, and every iota of flesh they put on. He would spend most of his time looking down on his boys, wondering if it was the same way his father looked at him and Daniel when they were babies. As he thought about Daniel, the events of the court's final verdict the previous week all came rushing back to him. He had always dreamed of the day Daniel would be sentenced to prison, and he would rejoice and rub it in his face. But on

Samantha was the first to notice his dazed expression once he was done with the phone call. He entered the private chamber of his office and stayed there.When she saw that he was not going to come out anytime soon, she went in there to search for him. "A celebrant can't leave his party, you know," she began in an attempt to lighten up his sour mood. He looked up at her and would not say a word. "What is going on?" She finally asked him. He dreaded saying anything to her. The news that he had just heard was capable of breaking her, and he did not want that for her. "You don't need to worry about it. I will fix it," he replied. "I did not ask you if you could fix it," she said. "I asked what was the matter," she was insistent. "Abigail just called me and she informed me that Lucy was rushed to the hospital," he finally spilled. "What are you talking about?" She asked, very bewildered. "Lucy was rushed to the hospital," he repeated. "And what are you doing about it?" She asked

The news about the court case had spread like wildfire, but Declan was not disturbed because he was on top of the case, gaining some level of victory over Daniel. The best part of it all was that he now had the judge on his side without having to try so much. It was in the course of these coincidences that he learned of the good legacy that his father had left behind because of his good deed. The judge had told him how he knew his father. When he kicked off his career as a barrister, he encountered different types of attacks from his rivals on the court. It was very unsafe for him and he was always running. One particular night, some armed men attacked him and beat him up so much that one could hardly recognize him except if they looked closely. He went about, knocking on doors and asking people for help, but no one would attend to him, especially because it was very late at night. They thought he was a thief or killer in disguise.Ferdinand was the only one who opened up to him.

Declan's eyes did not leave Georgina as she walked up to the witness box. He wondered what it was that she wanted to be a witness to. He saw the way she quivered as she stood there and he suspected that she had been coerced into doing what she did. He listened closely to her as she spoke, saying her vow on the holy book, even though everything that would come out of her mouth was all going to be lies. She did what he least expected. She said to the hearing of everyone in the court that she was raped by Declan the first time she came to be a surrogate for them.Declan was too stunned to say a word at all and just kept his eyes on her. She was crying bitterly. Looking intently at her, he was forced to wonder if these were just fake tears to back up her lie, or if it was a sign that she regretted betraying him. Daniel could have been the one coercing her to do this, but he did not say anything. His eyes still followed her as she walked down the witness box. She glanced at where Dan

If Declan could have collected all the pieces of evidence and witnesses he wanted in just a week or a month, it would not have been sufficient. But it took him three months, with Samantha solidly behind him. Micheal was not left out of the entire planning process for Daniel's court case. All they wanted to do was get him out of the way as soon as possible. To take down someone like Daniel, who hardly left any stone unturned or left loose ends, they needed to be well prepared, and Declan insisted that they were going to prepare well. The surrogacy plan kicked off in the second month. Lucy was giving off so many dangerous side effects at first that they kept wondering if her body could hold a child. She knew what she had gone through to produce a child that her body did not agree to. The one time that she thought she was close, was when the incident with Daniel happened. But Lucy's body adjusted afterward to the treatment. She began to respond positively and soon, she fell pregna
